My First Blog

I have been wanting to make my own blog for several years. Thought it would be hard and probably not worth it. It is not so that anyone will read it, but rather, so that I have a place to put my thoughts.
It is called "Adventures and other Bits of Life". It made me think about what adventures really are, and what life really is.
My guess is that adventures can be anything happening to anyone. What is an adventure to me, may not be an adventure to the next person, but what is "life" to me, has to be "life" to the next person. It is not about "good" life or "bad" life, but about all life.
Adventures, can be good or bad. I had a very bad adventure today. It would not have mattered to many, yet, just a small thing that has me flustered, and thinking of crying, and wanting to go and walk and walk and walk. Only it is cold out. And my knee is not so good today. And probably I could come up with at least three or four more reasons for not really going for a walk. There is also the fact that I am on call, and so may not be able to get back quickly enough. (A guffaw needs to be put in here. I am in Rankin Inlet, Nunavut, and the whole town is less than one mile from side to side. There are a few outlying cabins, but most are not used at this time of year. It is winter. They don't have heat. This is the Arctic).
So back to Bits of Life. Guess these could be great, or good...which is what I was thinking on the day I picked that title. Today they could be great, or good, or bad, or depressing, or pitiful. Will probably write the whole gamut at some point or the other. And they may also be interesting, or not. The advantage I see, of a blog, is that it is mine, and I can put in anything I want, at any time I want.
So, today, I am writing about adventures in general, and life, in less generalities, so I can depict what I might actually be going to write about. And now I know, that I am not sure. So hope that nobody reads this, and if they do, maybe it will be after "Adventures and other Bits of Life" knows where it is going??
